I wish they would have. Instead of cutting me, my daughter tore me from front to back and it was all crocked.

I had one with my first daughter. It healed in about 2 weeks. I just made sure I kept it clean.

my vote is -yes, it was very painful, but it was a necessity at that point in the labor and i would do it over again in a heartbeat. i had an epi, so i didn`t feel the incision or being stiched up, it was just painful afterwards. but i had been pushing nearly an hour and my daughter was stuck, so that was the safest option for me at the time.

I had one with my first child. I had a natural labour {no meds at all} but for some reason the Dr. thought I needed an episiotomy. I had only pushed twice...and he cut me! She was out on the third push. I thought he kinda did it a little too early. I had pain from it for months afterwards. I have already told him this time {I have the same Dr.} that I do not want one.

I had one and it really was not that bad first i didnt feel it bc of my epidural. i was pretty sore right after and for a few days but its not a horrible pain that kills you. its been two weeks and i sometimes feel a little sore. i was terrified of having it done and its not as bad as it would seem

  1. ANGRY!!!! My jenakers account is missing my ENTIRE journal from my high risk pregnancy and my letthisonestick account for my 7 month old is completely gone along with my journal. I AM SICK OVER IT!
  2. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  3. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  4. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  5. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  6. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  7. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  8. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  9. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  10. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
